Black and Asian deliberately paired in FlashForward
Gabrielle Union and John Cho will play an engaged mixed ethnic couple in ABC’s FlashForward; which will provide a sufficiently intriguing storyline if writers incorporate the role that ethnicity plays in a relationship.
(Premieres September 23rd at 9:30 ET on ABC)
Here’s what Union had to say:
“The cultural differences with our families…in the middle of a recession…[and those] that come from different cultures and races and backgrounds, will definitely be explored,” Union said in an exclusive interview last week in Pasadena, Calif. “And, I love John.”
Everyone in the world blacks out for over 2 minutes and catches a glipmse of the future and their lives on April 29, 2010. The bulk of the 1st season sees the characters figuring out what will come true and whether they can alter the future they’ve seen. Union said her scenes with Cho focus on their relationship.[source]
